Dr  Shan Premachandra

Counselling Psychologist & Psychotherapist (HCPC & UKCP registered)

As a Doctor of Psychology and Psychotherapy, I have 20 years of experience supporting individuals in understanding themselves, overcoming challenges, and restoring balance. In addition to my clinical work as a Psychologist, I also offer coaching—a future-focused, practical space for clients who want to clarify goals, build confidence, and make meaningful changes in their lives.

I am professionally registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP), and I am recognised by major insurance providers including Bupa, Aviva, AXA, Vitality, and WPA.

​

In my career, I have worked within Psychology services in the National Health Service (NHS) as well as mental health charities, and I have always been passionate about how psychology can meaningfully improve everyday life.

I keep therapy and coaching intentionally distinct, so clients can access the approach that best fits their needs.
